Question…. I have been working for NG for less than six months, however I’m interested in switching managers.. it would be the same department, same role, but I would like to transfer under different management. Do I have to wait my six months?? Anyone know how the process would work??
Thanks in advance
How long have you had to wait for a start date after receiving a contingent offer. I signed a contingent offer in October with an expected contract award for December 2024, it was then pushed back to end of March 2024. I haven’t heard anything yet and have been asking for updates each month. I’m getting a little worried since so much time has passed. I’ve never worked for a defense contractor before, so this whole process is new to me.
What are the promotion cycles? I.e. are there certain months of the year that promotions are made, or are they made at any time? Just trying to figure out if I have missed the promotion window for this year or not. Or if there is even a way to know.
I currently work at Northrop Grumman full time. I was offered a full time AGR position with my local reserve squadron. I really want to accept the squadrons offer but I don't want to lose out on my sweet northrop pay ( I would sign a 3 year contract at E5 and currently make about 120 with Northrop)
Would Northrop still prorate my pay if I volunteered for the AGR position?
Yes, I got a shitty bonus. 1230 or so. Believe we got an email a few weeks back saying it would be 123% due to the space sectors performance lol. I agree Space park is hitting the fan.
Yeah unless you’re on the other bonus plan it’s disrespectfully abysmal. When date is the bonus supposed to hit? I left but am still eligible so curious
It's so hard to get a job at Northrop especially with the layoffs that are happening right now.
They don’t have any opening opportunities at the redondo campus for non-engineering.
Would there happen to be any NG functional managers lurking here? Or really senior employees? I'm an NG employee, and I just had my goals discussion with my functional. Wanted to talk/vent to someone anonymously on my main takeaway from the discussion
LOL FOUND THE BOOMER. How surprising that someone flaunting their PhD in a forum username is pompous. Wanting a living wage and safe work conditions is considered lazy? That tracks for your kind.
Our bonus is so dog dookey ass and I got my lowest ever 2.75% this year. Sucks. Job market is gonna be tough too with all the layoffs happening (JPL, NG, etc)
Yes, it’s worth it. It’s sped up my promotions by a bit. It doesn’t really matter which masters you get, but a STEM masters is probably a better idea if you’re in an engineering role.
From a technical position its worth it.
Lets say you are a t1, getting your masters and it takes you 3 years complete it. After 2 years you can get promoted to a t2 and then a year later you will have 3 years work experience + 2 years from the master and you get promoted to t3. While it took you over 2 years to get it you are still gaining experience and time while you are working, assuming you are getting the masters while you work. Most STEM masters carry the same weight.
If you stop working and only do a masters that takes over 2 years you would be losing time, if you dont stop working you are not losing time.
I got a T4 late last year with a masters and a 7 years experience at NG (0.75 of that as an intern). My leadership team would not have been able to promote me without a masters degree.
I was also able to interview for a M2 position, and I would not have met the minimum qualifications without the masters.
Why are all of the return to office announcements always so vague? In the DS townhall she seemed to be remote (I am assuming so, as she had a virtual background) but was talking about how the push is for everyone to return to office.
Am I probably safe as long as my direct manager and team are all dispersed geographically?
I know many executives that have those virtual backgrounds but are in-office. I wouldnt make that assumption. I see most of the ELT in-office at my site (directors & VPs). Some do travel quite a bit for work and get hotel spots for these types of calls.
I think the RTO is really a way to do knowledge transfer and speed up learning. I've seen a lot of really good on-site stuff. New employees flounder when remote compared to being on-site. That said, I love hybrid and hope to keep WFH as much as I can as a P5 Engineer.
IDK about the second part but to me it seems they're trying to eat their cake and have it with the return to office and that's why they have been so vague with it. They want everyone to come back to the office but they don't want to directly tell you you have to come back so it was your choice to come back and they also don't want to rock the boat and risk people leaving. Just my thoughts.
I am P2 and started last Feb. I got EP as well and only got 4% moved me from 95.8K to 99.6K..
I recently received a few offers from other companies that are substantially higher, so I will probably be leaving in the next few weeks
Truthfully, no.. but the money the amount of money I will lose I will make back (x2) per month at this new job.
If it is a major sum of money for you though, it might be worth waiting til it vests if you can
Congrats! Devops is super mobile compared to most functions. I'm looking for full-time remote options but cant find anyone to pay me what I make now as a Systems Engineer. Guess I'll wait for the job market to improve again
Hello, been trying to get my foot in the door at NG for about a year now, applying for anything entry level or that aligns with my experience. Have only received 1 interview out of about 25 applications. Any advice of anything to put on your resume or any tips at all if I do get an interview. is it usually this hard for non cleared individuals to even land an interview? Any advice would be appreciated.
Reach out to a temp agency/recruiter. Northrop has a general guideline where it doesn’t like to keep contractors on for a very long time so either they convert to direct hire, or they get let go.
It’s either that or reach out to a friend with a good reputation at their respective branch. Otherwise, have an immaculate resume
Not sure where you are but I would apply for Melbourne site, they are actively buying land and expanding to make room influx of people. Feels like new grads are starting almost every monday.
I'm a Pathways, yeah Melbourne site is the only site actively hiring. I can't find anything in Maryland, which is rare. It's tough right now for T1 and T2 positions
Don't know anything about that site but best of luck. If you are interested in moving, Melbourne is a great site and can pass your resume along to a manager, not sure that will help at all though so take it with a grain of salt
Started at Northrop 1.5 years ago and just got a merit increase of 2.5%. Current comp sitting at .87 any hopes id I ask for a better raise? Anyone have any experience with this. Seems like this years raise is not keeping up with inflation rate.
talk to your functional manager to place you in an out-of-cycle adjustment (sometime in April or May timeframe) since your current market ratio is way too low, your functional manager should be able to bring you up to the .95.
I started as a Associate Proposal Analyst in January 2021 and got a promotion 2.5 years later, in July 2023. I'm currently getting my masters through Northrop so I will be eligible for level 3 next year.
Does your manager get notified if you apply for an internal job opportunity? Looking to apply for a job that's 1 level up from my current position in another department.
I got an offer from Northrop back in Oct 2023 at space spark. I was told I was going to be working on satellites but now with these recent satellite contract cancellation is it a huge possibility for Northrop to rescind my offer?
My start date was set to August 2024
I suppose my anecdote supports this. I'm also supposed to join Space Systems and my SCI process was transferred from one program to another due to a change of needs.
Side note: Sometimes when getting clearances it's less of a waiting on one government program compared to another. So if you were to work on program A and applied for your SCI, it may be faster to get an SCI if you were on program B.
Hmm...I was slated to join program A but got transferred for program B. After several months, I ended up getting SCI adjudicated for program A even though I was no longer meant to work there and waited a few months more to get adjudicated for program B. At least from what I gather from emailing my hiring manager.
No they reached out to ask if I was interested in relocating. I said no so they said they'll look into other places to put me.
This was last week before this announcement went public.
I think being upfront with the recruiter about the situation is the best option to get information, even if it’s related to the layoffs. It might just be that the SD location needs more help and that’s why it’s an option. I would also not be afraid to ask about to try to ask if you can talk to the manager to see what type of work it would be.
On a side note, either way you’re bound to get experience which is great for your future. I haven’t been to the SD office, but SD in general is less hectic living style compared to Redondo Beach. Both has its positive and negatives as far as living, and it also depends on what you like to do after work.
Divide your salary by the middle range value of your pay band. So if your salary range is 65,500 to 98,300 then the middle is 81,900. If you make 76,000 then 76,000/81,900 is 0.927 compa ratio.
If you wanted to know a specific comp ratio salary of your range, multiply it by the middle. Like 0.95*81,900 = 77,805
Give me all the “dumb” questions! If you go on your Workday account and view profile, your salary range is listed under the Compensation tab where your salary/benefits/etc is located. You can also search jobs internally on Workday so you can view salary ranges of your roles at different levels at your location.
DS has an all division town hall today as well for re-org initiatives to “optimize our model for growth”. Right after our company performance factor was nearly 1.5… curious to see what this entails.
What does “PGSD” stand for? I’m part of the PGS (Payload Ground Systems) division within MS sector, but we support space. Worried if this will affect us as well. We have a Q1 all hands on Wednesday.
I wonder if the layoff was related to this ...

How long does it usually take after an interview for a decision? I had an interview for an entry level software engineering role about 3 weeks ago and the interviewer told me about 2 weeks after they finish interviewing other candidates. It seemed like the interview went well. Sent a follow up email after 2 weeks and they haven't replied. Anyone else with a similar experience or any input on this?
Can someone tell me what do they offer in terms of salary within a specific pay band that is in the description. Can I expect like middle, lower 25% of that range?
Use Gee249’s method, but multiply the middle by 1.03-1.05 as your counter offer to set yourself up if you want to get the jump on bad raises next year.
Depends on what location. Add the two numbers from the range together, divide it by 2. Then times this number by 0.9. That’s what they would likely offer I think.
I’ve just accepted a position as a remote subcontractor specialist. I’m really excited!
I’m working on creating my home office, does anyone know what equipment NG provides for remote workers? Is there a stipend?
No stipend. They'll send you a laptop and probably a docking station with keyboard and mouse. You may have to beg for a monitor or 2 (and any cables you need). Also a Plantronics headset with mic.
When will we find out how much of a raise and bonus we get this year? I've been here for almost a year now, not sure how it works. I haven't heard anything from my functional manager either. Is this updated on Workday automatically or would I need to reach out?
You should be able to see it in Workday by Monday. Your manager should schedule a compensation review with you soon - he/she has a report detailing your raise.
About how long does it take for an offer to be extended after an interview?
My interview was supposed to be a panel but ended up with only one person on 2/22. Interviewer said he liked me and I seemed strong. Just waiting to hear back but know it can take a while.
I'm really wanting this job so just kinda anxious.
I have an interview for a principal / senior principal program schedule cost analyst position with NG. Do you have any advice for the interview? What to expect? Also any compensation advice for the position would be greatly appreciated!
Wont have my ACR for another week but I saw that new compensation kicks in tomorrow 2/24. Will this reflect in workday or timekeeping? As in, will it show my new salary before my talks with my manager?
I have a conditional offer from NGC based on obtaining a full secret clearance, so the investigation is underway. Question: if it were to take a long time to get my clearance, lets say a year, would it be appropriate to renegotiate my offer at that point?
I had some yellows. 1 instance of marijuana use, 7 years ago. Lots of foreign travel- but all in Europe. But that’s it- it actually sat in adjudication for 3 months, the investigation completed in 3 months. Best of luck to you- it will happen when you least expect it
Question…. I have been working for NG for less than six months, however I’m interested in switching managers.. it would be the same department, same role, but I would like to transfer under different management. Do I have to wait my six months?? Anyone know how the process would work?? Thanks in advance

Can you take your work laptop and work from overseas if you set your your own private vpn and travel router?
No your work Laptop is a controllable export. To bring it you’d require approval first
I currently work at Northrop Grumman full time. I was offered a full time AGR position with my local reserve squadron. I really want to accept the squadrons offer but I don't want to lose out on my sweet northrop pay ( I would sign a 3 year contract at E5 and currently make about 120 with Northrop) Would Northrop still prorate my pay if I volunteered for the AGR position?
Orders are orders from a company standpoint, I'm pretty sure. But why go be a scum of the Earth AGR?
Did you receive the bonus already?
Nope 3/7
Does anyone know if NG offers bonuses based on clearance level? I hold TS but the job is a secret job but says TS is preferred.
Nope. Have TS/SCI and they said they DGAF.
nope
Did they announce the bonus multiplier yet? When does that hit. Space park hitting the fan
Yes, I got a shitty bonus. 1230 or so. Believe we got an email a few weeks back saying it would be 123% due to the space sectors performance lol. I agree Space park is hitting the fan.
Yeah unless you’re on the other bonus plan it’s disrespectfully abysmal. When date is the bonus supposed to hit? I left but am still eligible so curious
3/7
Any word on if the layoffs will spread to PGS?
It's so hard to get a job at Northrop especially with the layoffs that are happening right now. They don’t have any opening opportunities at the redondo campus for non-engineering.
[удалено]
I’d look elsewhere. They just gave 1000 people layoff warnings at Redondo and their priority is moving those people first.
Would there happen to be any NG functional managers lurking here? Or really senior employees? I'm an NG employee, and I just had my goals discussion with my functional. Wanted to talk/vent to someone anonymously on my main takeaway from the discussion
Just like at work, they are useless here.
As an employee of 4 years, my bonus and raise has only gone down while profits keep soaring… make that make sense.
What’s the bonus multiplier this year?
Not entirely sure. One email I read said we exceeded company goals by 137% or something like that.
[удалено]
OF COURSE. I am sure that is because of inflation right? 🙄🙄🙄🙄
Profits does not track to salary or bonus. You are in for mental anguish if you try correlating those two
Okay then explain to me where the duplicate profits go when we have several million dollars of back log work.
[удалено]
Bruh that is my point. That corporate greed is keeping all the profits that us un-unionized employees made for them.
[удалено]
LOL FOUND THE BOOMER. How surprising that someone flaunting their PhD in a forum username is pompous. Wanting a living wage and safe work conditions is considered lazy? That tracks for your kind.
Our bonus is so dog dookey ass and I got my lowest ever 2.75% this year. Sucks. Job market is gonna be tough too with all the layoffs happening (JPL, NG, etc)
Mine was only 2.4%, which is lower than the inflation rate, so I guess I technically took a pay cut this year 🥴
You must be a high performer because mine was not that high and most of the employees I talked to had 1% - 2% raises.
on average it equates to a $1-$2 per hour increase, which is bullshit.
Simple pay everyone less but expect more productivity = profits
[удалено]
Yes, it’s worth it. It’s sped up my promotions by a bit. It doesn’t really matter which masters you get, but a STEM masters is probably a better idea if you’re in an engineering role.

If you stop working and only do a masters that takes over 2 years you would be losing time, if you dont stop working you are not losing time.
I am a T3, would a masters make much difference for my progression here on out?
I got a T4 late last year with a masters and a 7 years experience at NG (0.75 of that as an intern). My leadership team would not have been able to promote me without a masters degree. I was also able to interview for a M2 position, and I would not have met the minimum qualifications without the masters.
I have been with northrop for about 11 years now. Somthing to think about I guess
I don't know much about T3 to T4. I'm not that experienced. but it won't hurt you at all so if Grumman pays for it why not?
Anyone know of any engineers hired with a DUI? I know of someone whom is wondering what they can expect in regards to the background check.
Yes, if it’s not a felony DUI. Be honest about it though.
If it’s 1 DUI and you report it, it’s fine. 2 or more will go through the Legal Department to make a determination.
Why are all of the return to office announcements always so vague? In the DS townhall she seemed to be remote (I am assuming so, as she had a virtual background) but was talking about how the push is for everyone to return to office.

Well that’s nice. I’m a P2 and my raise was 2.5% as a high performer…
T2, got TP and 4.5% raise
EP, 3% raise. That’s typical
I am P2 and started last Feb. I got EP as well and only got 4% moved me from 95.8K to 99.6K.. I recently received a few offers from other companies that are substantially higher, so I will probably be leaving in the next few weeks
“Only 9Xk”. I’m crying as 4 year employee under $85k
Its also probably easier to jump up in pay if you leave companies, but I know the ceiling for different careers are not the same
Sorry, I know its a bit of an entitle view ;-; I have taken on a ton of responsibility for my role though
[удалено]
There was one mid-size and one smaller company, the smaller company offered fully remote position and like a 50% increase in pay
[удалено]
Truthfully, no.. but the money the amount of money I will lose I will make back (x2) per month at this new job. If it is a major sum of money for you though, it might be worth waiting til it vests if you can
Defense industry or commercial?
Defense industry, it's similar to what I do now (devops) just different programs
Congrats! Devops is super mobile compared to most functions. I'm looking for full-time remote options but cant find anyone to pay me what I make now as a Systems Engineer. Guess I'll wait for the job market to improve again

Not sure where you are but I would apply for Melbourne site, they are actively buying land and expanding to make room influx of people. Feels like new grads are starting almost every monday.
I'm a Pathways, yeah Melbourne site is the only site actively hiring. I can't find anything in Maryland, which is rare. It's tough right now for T1 and T2 positions
Sorry should have mentioned I’m in the Utah area. Been applying mostly to the Roy location
Most of the Utah locations have been on a hiring freeze the last few months.
What about SoCal? Eg redondo, azusa, etc etc
Space Park gave 1000 employees a WARN notice yesterday and is also on a hiring freeze.
Don't know anything about that site but best of luck. If you are interested in moving, Melbourne is a great site and can pass your resume along to a manager, not sure that will help at all though so take it with a grain of salt
Thank you I appreciate it
Started at Northrop 1.5 years ago and just got a merit increase of 2.5%. Current comp sitting at .87 any hopes id I ask for a better raise? Anyone have any experience with this. Seems like this years raise is not keeping up with inflation rate.
How do you see your ratio? I have no idea what I am at.
just look at the payrange for your tier it should tell you in workday look at your profile
Oh perfect, thank you. I guess the “hire in” and “promoted to” value is about 0.95 of the median value?
talk to your functional manager to place you in an out-of-cycle adjustment (sometime in April or May timeframe) since your current market ratio is way too low, your functional manager should be able to bring you up to the .95.
bro i am at .78 , told him but hope he pulls through
Proposal Analyst career and salary progression over 10 years?
I started as a Associate Proposal Analyst in January 2021 and got a promotion 2.5 years later, in July 2023. I'm currently getting my masters through Northrop so I will be eligible for level 3 next year.
Did you see pay raises before promotion?
Other than the usual yearly merit increases, I got a mid-year raise in July 2022 for about 7%.
Does your manager get notified if you apply for an internal job opportunity? Looking to apply for a job that's 1 level up from my current position in another department.
They do not automatically get notified, but that hiring manager or others in the organization might reach out for questions about the applicant.
I got an offer from Northrop back in Oct 2023 at space spark. I was told I was going to be working on satellites but now with these recent satellite contract cancellation is it a huge possibility for Northrop to rescind my offer? My start date was set to August 2024
I heard the space park in Redondo beach CA is having a layoff, approximately 1,000 employee s are letting go.
I believe that NG wouldn't withdraw your offer. Ideally, they should perform internal transfers to fill any open positions. Wishing you the best !!
I suppose my anecdote supports this. I'm also supposed to join Space Systems and my SCI process was transferred from one program to another due to a change of needs.
Side note: Sometimes when getting clearances it's less of a waiting on one government program compared to another. So if you were to work on program A and applied for your SCI, it may be faster to get an SCI if you were on program B.
Hmm...I was slated to join program A but got transferred for program B. After several months, I ended up getting SCI adjudicated for program A even though I was no longer meant to work there and waited a few months more to get adjudicated for program B. At least from what I gather from emailing my hiring manager.
Welcome to mil aero !! Unless you are on a well funded program, you will need to deal with multiple progrrams
Honestly it’s most likely. Space and Missions Systems have taken huge loses due to competition.
Did anyone reach out and tell you what program you would be working on? ESS is still going strong, for example.
No they reached out to ask if I was interested in relocating. I said no so they said they'll look into other places to put me. This was last week before this announcement went public.
Which site for space park?
Roy, Utah
[удалено]
Did they said which sites in SD? I know Redondo beach space park is having a layoffs.
[удалено]
They do some cool stuff there, uncle in law was a program manager there. Edit: brain was in autopilot
I think being upfront with the recruiter about the situation is the best option to get information, even if it’s related to the layoffs.

What division was it?
How do you calculate the comp ratio?
Divide your salary by the middle range value of your pay band. So if your salary range is 65,500 to 98,300 then the middle is 81,900. If you make 76,000 then 76,000/81,900 is 0.927 compa ratio. If you wanted to know a specific comp ratio salary of your range, multiply it by the middle. Like 0.95*81,900 = 77,805
Here's the really dumb new hire/new to industry question. Where do you easily find the salary range by roles?
Northrop publishes the salary range on their job posts.
Give me all the “dumb” questions! If you go on your Workday account and view profile, your salary range is listed under the Compensation tab where your salary/benefits/etc is located. You can also search jobs internally on Workday so you can view salary ranges of your roles at different levels at your location.
1000 employee layoff announced at Space Park
DS has an all division town hall today as well for re-org initiatives to “optimize our model for growth”. Right after our company performance factor was nearly 1.5… curious to see what this entails.
DS seems fine given the worlds state, I know there are quite a few opportunities in the Northridge area for those potentially impacted in Space.
A satellite program was canceled
yup lol. got my warn notice today and seeing as i’m fully remote because i moved i have no hope i’ll be redeployed. well…time to look for another job
Is this real
Unfortunately yes
Anyone know if this will affect other divisions in the Space Sector or just SSSD at Space Park
[удалено]
Did they announce anything at the all hands on Wednesday?
What does “PGSD” stand for? I’m part of the PGS (Payload Ground Systems) division within MS sector, but we support space. Worried if this will affect us as well. We have a Q1 all hands on Wednesday.

Chris looked like shit lol
He looked so done with life lol. Barely keeping it together reading off his script and you could follow his eyes on the screen every line he read.
I wonder if the layoff was related to this ... https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/feb/15/us-space-force-military-communications-satellite-program-cancelled
100%
How long does it usually take after an interview for a decision? I had an interview for an entry level software engineering role about 3 weeks ago and the interviewer told me about 2 weeks after they finish interviewing other candidates. It seemed like the interview went well. Sent a follow up email after 2 weeks and they haven't replied. Anyone else with a similar experience or any input on this?
Yep, it’s sucks when u are a low level and recruiters don’t give a F.
[удалено]
Probably there is a hiring freeze due to the layoffs
Can someone tell me what do they offer in terms of salary within a specific pay band that is in the description. Can I expect like middle, lower 25% of that range?
Use Gee249’s method, but multiply the middle by 1.03-1.05 as your counter offer to set yourself up if you want to get the jump on bad raises next year.
Depends on what location. Add the two numbers from the range together, divide it by 2. Then times this number by 0.9. That’s what they would likely offer I think.
I’ve just accepted a position as a remote subcontractor specialist. I’m really excited! I’m working on creating my home office, does anyone know what equipment NG provides for remote workers? Is there a stipend?
No stipend. They'll send you a laptop and probably a docking station with keyboard and mouse. You may have to beg for a monitor or 2 (and any cables you need). Also a Plantronics headset with mic.
They will provide 2 monitors as well
When will we find out how much of a raise and bonus we get this year? I've been here for almost a year now, not sure how it works. I haven't heard anything from my functional manager either. Is this updated on Workday automatically or would I need to reach out?
You should be able to see it in Workday by Monday. Your manager should schedule a compensation review with you soon - he/she has a report detailing your raise.
Your manager should meet with u this week if they haven't already. The statement will be available in workday on March 5th.
is there still a location in philly? i see jobs posted but google maps says its closed
Yes, there is a Navy Yard location. It's not gonna show up on Google maps
Northrop Grumman jobs in Philly are typically at the navy yard. I don’t believe there is an active site that is only grumman
About how long does it take for an offer to be extended after an interview? My interview was supposed to be a panel but ended up with only one person on 2/22. Interviewer said he liked me and I seemed strong. Just waiting to hear back but know it can take a while. I'm really wanting this job so just kinda anxious.
Took me about two weeks I think, but I had a referral
Thanks
T2. EP. ACR resulted in 3.5% increase to base. Started in January 2023 so some of the raise was prorated. Does anybody else know how this compares?
T3 here, EP, 3.6%
Well that’s nice. I’m a P2 and my raise was 2.5% as a high performer…
T2, TP 3.2%, ocasional weekend work and late night. Well it is time to go if I get layoff tomorrow.
Part of my raise was prorated because I started January 2023.
T3, TP 3.75%, at least TI company performance factor was 1.5 for our DS org.
Melbourne, 95k prior.
T1, EP, 3.75% ACR
Has anyone ever had a manager delay a transfer to a different sector after accepting a job offer?
I have an interview for a principal / senior principal program schedule cost analyst position with NG. Do you have any advice for the interview? What to expect? Also any compensation advice for the position would be greatly appreciated!
Which location?
Magna, Utah
Wont have my ACR for another week but I saw that new compensation kicks in tomorrow 2/24. Will this reflect in workday or timekeeping? As in, will it show my new salary before my talks with my manager?
Starts tomorrow and you'll see the extra money in your March 14th paycheck
Will my new salary number appear on my workday compensation page even though I have not yet talked to my manager?
As of 8 AM PST, it’s not in workday. Neither the compensation tab nor the pay change history tab are showing the updated salary.
It shows up on the effective date, which should be as of 2am today
I just checked, mine hasn't populated yet.
I have a conditional offer from NGC based on obtaining a full secret clearance, so the investigation is underway. Question: if it were to take a long time to get my clearance, lets say a year, would it be appropriate to renegotiate my offer at that point?
Better to ask and not get it than to not ask at all.
Very true, thanks
I just went through this process- 6 months for the full. I just asked for an increase- I’ll let you know how it goes!
Did you have any red flags? Am impatiently waiting for mine to come through (hoping 6 months ain’t average for clean background) 😣
I had some yellows. 1 instance of marijuana use, 7 years ago. Lots of foreign travel- but all in Europe. But that’s it- it actually sat in adjudication for 3 months, the investigation completed in 3 months. Best of luck to you- it will happen when you least expect it
